CANADA STOCKS-Futures jump after U.S. jobs data

Sept 2 (Reuters) - Stock futures pointed to a higher opening
for Canada's main stock index on Friday after data showed U.S.
employment growth slowed more than expected in August, which
could rule out a U.S. interest rate increase this month.

Also, Canada's trade deficit in July unexpectedly shrank to
C$2.49 billion ($1.90 billion) from a record C$3.97 billion in
June as exports jumped 3.4 percent and imports stagnated.

September futures on the S&P TSX index were up 0.30
percent at 8:45 a.m. ET.
